Exciting return to Lincoln Elementary School post-winter break! 😊 Students' smiles, laughter, and classroom buzz filled the day. From eager faces to reminders of routines, our first day was a mix of joy and focused learning. 📚👫 @MontgomeryISD

#SchoolVouchers: ❌Terrible academic outcomes; ❌Bailouts for sub-prime private schools; ❌Tax breaks for parents already able to afford tuition. ❌Discriminatory admissions—it’s the school’s choice not school choice. My @TIME piece from April: https://t.co/jjQjilLZtK

For a quick moment, imagine you were born in 1900. When you are 14, World War I starts, and ends on your 18th birthday with 22 million people killed. Later in the year, a Spanish Flu epidemic hits the planet and runs until you are 20. Fifty million people die from it in those two

I’m a conservative & don’t support taxpayer dollars spent without accountability, modern day segregation or false narratives portraying vouchers as “parent choice”. The reality is parents don’t get the 💰or choice - the non-public schools get to select the students they want.
Conservatives strongly support school choice. Liberals are against school choice. Makes you wonder about the Republican Texas House members who voted with the liberals against school choice. A change is coming on March 5th.

Unpopular Question: Why are we not asking classroom teachers what needs to be fixed in public schools? They are the ones with the kids all day.
